Modern Languages and Intercultural Communications

Saint Louis University's modern languages and intercultural communication minor at the Madrid, Spain, campus focuses on foreign languages in the context of communication among people from distinct cultures. SLU-Madrid's location and its international student body make intercultural communication an everyday reality.

Graduates with this minor can communicate at an advanced or upper-intermediate level in one language and at an elementary level in a second foreign language. You'll gain knowledge of the different aspects of human communication, including the relationship between language, behavior, culture and mind.

Send transcripts of all secondary work.

Find out from your admission counselor what secondary credentials are required. We’ll evaluate how you’ve done in school up to this point, so please send all transcripts for secondary work, along with their English language translations.

Submit proof of your English language proficiency.

These are scores from any standardized test you may have taken to prepare for college — TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, SAT, ACT or Duolingo score. All of our international applicants are required to demonstrate their English proficiency, and these tests can help us make that determination.

If you do not meet SLU’s direct entry requirements, we encourage you to apply to the Pathway or English Language programs offered by INTO Saint Louis University.
